THAILAND – ประเทศไทย

THAILAND – ประเทศไทย

Phuket

Phuket, lying eight hundred and seventy kilometers south from

Bangkok, is Thailand's largest island, as well as being the country's

smallest province.

Today, Phuket is a vibrant, intrinsic and multi-cultural tourist

destination. Being approximately twenty-one km in width by forty-

eight km in length, the typical landscape of Phuket is one of

forested hills, coconut groves and rubber tree plantations. The

Islands coastline is dotted with numerous spectacular

beaches. The surrounding waters of the Andaman Sea contain

an incredulous variety of marine life, which have become

renowned for offering world-class scuba diving. Phuket Island and

its thirty-two smaller islands form Phuket Province, giving a total

area of five hundred and seventy square kilometers.

For yacht berthing in Phuket, we recommend the Yacht Haven

Marina, which is situated on the Northeast coast of Phuket. The

marina is within close proximity to the majestic limestone islands

of Phang Nga Bay. The Yacht Haven is Phuket‟s best deep water

access marina. The marina is currently capable of taking yachts

of up to 80 meters in length, and 5-meter draft. There are plans

to greatly expand their Superyacht dock space and marina

facilities in the coming year or two.

Phang Nga and Krabi

Phang Nga Bay is renowned for its one hundred or so monolithic

limestone kast islets. The area offers breath-taking scenery and is

classed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Some of the attractions

in the itinerary of Phang Nga Bay would be sea-kayaking amongst

the many islands and caves, which open out to reveal hidden

'Hongs', open air lagoons with shear walls limestone walls. Visiting

the traditional stilted Muslim fishing village of „Koh Panyi‟ for a fresh

seafood lunch is also well worthwhile. Most famous of all the

highlights is James Bond Island, featured in „The Man with the

Golden Gun‟. Six Senses Resort offers a wellness Spa treatment at

their exclusive five-star Island resort on Koh Yao Noi Island.

Krabi Province, Sailing just an hour or so southeast from Phang Nga

is the Province of Krabi. Similar in many respects to Phang Nga

bay, Krabi also offers limestone islands of stunning degree, but

added to this are some beautiful powder white beaches, clearer

water for snorkeling and scuba diving. Krabi province also offers

good land excursions for guest wanting to explore. Tiger Cave

Temple, Hot Spring waterfall and the Emerald Pool are just some of

the natural attractions awaiting those with an adventurous

spirit. Within the coastal boundaries of Krabi province lie some

dream islands. Phi Phi Islands are probably the most recognisable

and beautiful of all, but further to the south are Lanta Yai and

Lanta Noi islands. Koh Lanta offers a couple of great dive sites

known as „Hin Daeng‟ Red Rock, due to the profuseness of the

abundant Red soft corals growing there. Whale Sharks are often

spotted by divers at Hin Daeng.

Similan and Surin Islands

The Similan Islands, lie approximately 55Nm northwest of Phuket Island in

the Andaman Sea. In 1982, the 90 Sq.Nm reserve comprising the Similans

was declared a Marine National Park. In recent years this group of nine

small islands has become one of the leading attractions for scuba divers to

Thailand. It is rated as one of the top-ten dive sites in the world. During the

high season months, water clarity for divers can be between 30-50 meters.

Manta Rays, Whale sharks and other large pelagic fish can all be found in

residence around the islands. Other attractions include pristine coral reefs,

power white beaches, small trekking excursions and snorkeling.

The Surin Islands, Archipelago is a 95Sq.Nm Marine National Park, located

in the Andaman Sea, some 35Nm off of the Thai coast. Belonging to

Ranong Province, the park's five islands lie just a couple of miles south of

the Thai / Burma border. The two main islands, Koh Surin Nua and Koh Surin

Tai, are separated by a narrow strait of water, just one hundred meters

across. With almost no flat ground beyond small pockets of mangrove and

stunning little beaches, nestled in hidden coves. These two islands cover a

land mass of 9Sq.m and 8sq.m respectively. Again world-class diving is

within easy reach around the islands fringing reefs. Guest‟s can go to the

beach, swim, snorkel, or look for monkeys and other local wildlife. A

traditionally nomadic Seafaring race of people called the „Moken‟ Sea

Gypsies, make seasonal stilted thatch homes on a couple of the

beaches. They can be visited to buy sea shells or to just witness their very

traditional and rare way of life.

Gulf of Thailand

Thailand's eastern seaboard, offers some lovely cruising

opportunities. Having many unspoiled and beautiful

tropical Islands scattered around the Gulf of Thailand.

Small winding roadways through old Coconut Tree

Plantations, leading to golden beaches are typical of the

type of scene one would encounter whilst exploring Koh

Samui, Koh Pangan and Koh Tao Islands.

Koh Samui, is the best known of the islands in the Gulf. It is

now well established as the main tourist island on the east

coast of Thailand. Good anchorages can be found on the

eastern and northern side of the Island. Many local jetties

make coming ashore easy by tender. Samui is home to

some prestigious hotel chains. Amongst them are the Six

Senses, Four Seasons, and Banyan Tree Resorts.

Koh Pha Ngan, located a few miles north of Koh Samui, is

slightly smaller in size but less developed and more relaxed.

There are beautiful beaches all the way around the

islands, but the best bays can be found on the eastern

coast.

Koh Tao (Turtle Island), ten or so miles north from Koh Pha

Ngan is the small island of Koh Tao. Due to its remoteness,

it is hardly developed and very natural. Clear waters offer

good scuba diving and snorkeling amongst its rocky bays

and inlets. The island is an important breeding ground for

Hawksbill and Green Turtles.

Mu Ko Ang Thong National Park, is an archipelago in the Gulf

of Thailand. It comprises of 42 Islands. Most of the islands

consist of limestone mountains 10 - 100 meters above sea

level. The park covers a total area of 102 sq.km of about

18sq.km is land mass.

BURMA (MYANMAR)

BURMA (MYANMAR)

Burma - Mergui Archipelago

Seal Superyachts has been providing professional yacht support

services in Burmese waters since 1997. This is from the very start

of when Burma's waters were opened up to private yacht visits.

In fact we are proudly justified in saying that we are the

pioneers of yachting in Burma. We were directly responsible for

negotiations with the government, persuading them to open

the Mergui Archipelago to eco-tourism and yachting. Before 97,

the islands had remained off limits since the end of the Second

World War.

Burma has some of the most beautiful sailing grounds in Asia,

and arguably the world. The southern islands of Burma's Mergui

Archipelago lie only one hundred and twenty nautical miles to

the north of Phuket and directly west of the Thai border town of

Ranong. There are approximately eight hundred pristine and

untouched islands opposite Burma's Tennasserim coast, forming

one of the last remaining untouched paradises on the planet.

Flora and fauna is prolific on the islands. Although impenetrable

jungle prevents sighting of larger mammals, their tracks are

plentiful above the high tide mark on the beaches of larger

islands. Macaque (pronounced ma-cak) monkeys and large

monitor lizards are seen frequently on the beaches and rocky

shorelines. The larger islands are believed to support a wide

variety of mammals and reptiles within the dense rain forests,

although no formal study has been done since the turn of the

century. Crocodiles have been seen, and there has even been

a suggestion that the rare Asian Rhinoceros might still survive on

the larger islands. There are literally hundreds of untouched

anchorages in this southern Mergui group.

Burma Itinerary

Day 1 - Depart Kawthong for the Mergui Archipelgo. Set sail to your

magnificent first night anchorage at Frost Island (115).

Day 2 - Spend the morning exploring the idyllic anchorage. The five islands

that make up this group have 10 white sand beaches and beautiful fringing

coral reefs. This is a great place for kayaking, snorkeling, fishing or just

relaxing and enjoying the birdsong from the jungle. Late morning sail to

Nga Mann for lunch, some great snorkeling with turtles and blue-spotted

rays off a perfect white sand beach.

Day 3 - Day spent exploring the uninhabited island of Great Swinton. This

island has a mountainous interior, primary jungle, teaming wildlife, rivers and

waterfalls. Over 12 pristine white beaches and great snorkeling on the

surrounding reefs.

Day 4 - Set sail for Clara Island, one of our favorite islands in the Mergui

Archipelago. Anchor in a bay of white sand and go ashore for seafood

BBQ.

Day 5 - Salet Galet – one of the most spectacular areas of the Mergui

Archipelago. A narrow channel between Lampi island and Wa Ale Kyunn

forms a perfectly protected anchorage, surrounded by pristine jungle. This is

a great area for jungle walks, kayaking and wildlife viewing. We often

encounter the nomadic “Moken” tribe in this area who still live a hunter-

gatherer existence in this remote wilderness.

Day 6 - Lampi Island – a unique and unusual area of the Mergui

Archipelago, designated a National Park by the Burmese government. This

area is full of wildlife with large numbers of hornbills, giant fruit bats, monitor

lizards and pythons. There are several jungle rivers on the west coast which

can be partially navigated by tender. Wild Elephants live in this area, which

can sometimes be spotted on the west coast beaches.

Day 7 - Morning sail to Island 60 for lunch. Excellent spot to go ashore, swim

or snorkel around this beautiful little island. Early afternoon sail to Bo Cho

Island to visit a Moken village. Fascinating insight into the local culture and a

chance to see local Moken boats being built out of hand sawn planks.
